Airdate: The Lost Daughter

Olivia Colman stars in Maggie Gyllenhaal's directorial debut feature.

Olivia Colman stars in a new movie The Lost Daughter which drops today on Netflix.

Maggie Gyllenhaal makes her directorial debut from a script she adapted from the novel by Elena Ferrante. It also stars Dakota Johnson, Jessie Buckley, Ed Harris, Peter Sarsgaard, Paul Mescal and Dagmara Dominczyk.

Alone on a seaside vacation, Leda (Olivia Colman) becomes consumed with a young mother and daughter as she watches them on the beach. Unnerved by their compelling relationship, (and their raucous and menacing extended family), Leda is overwhelmed by her own memories of the terror, confusion and intensity of early motherhood. An impulsive act shocks Leda into the strange and ominous world of her own mind, where she is forced to face the unconventional choices she made as a young mother and their consequences. 

Friday December 31st on Netflix.

  1. After watching Olivia in Stan’s ‘Landscapers’ her acting ability creating the psychologically troubled Susan Edwards will make her new role in The Lost Daughter all the more interesting, she definitely has some interesting co stars. Director Maggie Gyllenhaal has some acting experience with this subject herself.
